-------
The lowly quartermaster Henry Every (Avery) takes fortune into his own hands when he leads a mutiny to oust his captain and turn the crew into pirates. Perhaps the most valuable treasure hoard in the world is making its way across the Indian Ocean in a ship called the Ganj-i-Sawai or the Gunsway. Every and his band of pirates decide to attack it. This is the story of the adventure, the horrible villainies, and the mysterious fate of the “King of the Pirates,” Henry Every.

@pokeman5000 3 месяца назад

TBH the timing of him joining Thomas Tew and knowledge that a treasure loaded ship was leaving port "soonish" is highly suspicious. Especially in the early 1700's communication was limited to mostly documentation. Much like the Gold of Tolosa stolen by a roman proconsul in antiquity, there clearly was some form of corruption at play. Somebody in the know let slip that information, and ensured no trading vessels would be passing by a moored pirate armada. Him disappearing and likely handing over part of his crew as a head for the common mob is also insanely suspicious. He was cleary protected from someone on high, who likely did it not just for gold but petty revenge. They were right to blame the East India Company.

We even had to do security drills in case that situation ever happened. We never saw any pirates and they're definitely not what they used to be, but it was a somber reminder that when shit hits the fan on a ship you're on your own til help arrives.

I always thought Every was so impressive because he got out. Throughout history, no matter the time, knowing when and where to get out of the game a rich man and get away with it is rare. I think Every knew what would happen if he kept going. Or maybe he faked his name and got pardoned with many other pirates. Maybe he was unknowingly hanged with countless others. But the fact remains that the name of Henry Every was never killed.

Not only that lot of times merchant ships weren’t capable of taking pirates as it merchant ship which was suited for different role

@leesin666 Год назад

No it's true, because Navy ships were nearly always much better in general, better sailing profile, more guns, larger guns, Marines on board and when it came to the British Navy they had very well drilled gun crews that could put out a violently fast rate of fire with good accuracy. They were larger ships comissioned to be built with the goal of being a ship made for combat. The majority of Pirate ships were often smaller ships, many merchant ships converted to bare more guns and/or sail faster. Pirates were in the game for violently robbing lucrative targets, not for fighting Navy ships. Of course there are Pirates who did obtain larger ships and beat Navy ships or large ships like the one in this video, but the vast majority of Pirates were not these legends.

@@zakariamattu8613 Moreso they had much smaller crews than pirate or navy ships and those they had were not prepared for large boarding crews. So with minimal cannons to shoot the pirates down well before they got within range, most surrendered quickly and without a fight.

@4thamendment237 Год назад

It all has to do with equipment and fighting skill. Merchant vessels lacked guns and fighting skill. Pirates had some guns and some fighting skill. Naval warships had a lot of guns and built for the purpose of fighting. They also had far better fighting skills than pirates -- they trained regularly in a disciplined way, and the sailors were trained to fight as a unit as well. That's why terrorists like al Qaeda or the Taliban can't beat the U.S. military. The individual terrorists might have great fighting skill in combat, but they don't train together to fight as a unit as much as the US military does. It's kind of like a tough barroom brawler getting in the ring with a world-class professional boxer. Which side are you gonna bet on? ...Exactly.

@fearedjames Год назад

@@4thamendment237 This is mostly bullshit. Merchant vessels had skilled mercenaries to protect them but faced with the large crews on a pirate ship they mostly buckled since they ultimately weren't in it for a fight to the death. Pirate ships were largely piloted by ex-navy ship crews and were largely equally as trained as military ships. However most of them were rogue priveteers (who would have smaller faster ships), or not in ships equipped for major warfare. So generally pirate ships were overkill for merchants and horribly underequiped to engage larger warships which due to working within the law would likely be better maintained and moreso at full armenent. Pirates were not random jackasses who somehow pulled warships together. They largely didn't last long not because they were weaker but because they rapidly ran out of places to go. The Taliban were incapable of fighting US forces in pitched battles because they are vastly worse trained, worse equipped and incapable of doing anything to secure against the USs famously good air power due to lacking modern MANPADS or other anti-air equipment.

@CetomimusGillii Год назад

Exceptional work! Between the believable yet evocative art and the perfectly paced narration, you've got a gem that easily earned a sub, and perhaps a patron as well. Where I find this piece to really stand out from the crowd in particular, is the script. To my tastes, your writing walked a tightrope, not falling into dry detail nor overly fanciful narrative. Lean into that, it's a real talent. I love some Stayuki and Dan Carlin, but I rarely find time for the latter or learn much that I can meaningfully contextualize from the former. The maps helped me comprehend the context of the story despite its grueling pace, and while it certainly felt light on detail, the narrative flowed well enough to give me a great introduction to this person and his place in the golden age of piracy. All that makes for the best high-level biography I've seen. It seems very intentionally produced to be what it is, which is more than I can say for some of my favorite history RU-vidrs who end up with videos of very random lengths, seemingly based on their level of prior knowledge (and/or passion) on the subject. Only critique is that nerds like me might appreciate on-screen citations of your sources. I love that you have them in the description, but it'd be great to know where to look for more information on specific events. Thanks!

@Willy2537 Год назад

I first knew about Henry Every and his legendary exploits from Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (he was called Henry Avery there, though). Needless to say, I'm quite fascinated by the man right now. More often than not when I think about pirates, the ones that were active in the Caribbean Sea such as Blackbeard, Henry Morgan, Bartholomew Roberts, 'Calico' Jack Rackham, Anne Bonny and Mary Read, etc. but Every's most famed exploit took place far away from the Caribbean. Would love to learn more about Ching Shih, the female Chinese pirate lord, too. From what I look up, she controlled an entire fleet of pirates and fought major powers such as the East India Company and Qing China itself. She's awesome.

My theory is that Every sold out his crew in exchange for a new identity. His disappearance makes more sense, especially since his crew was hanged immediately after they reached Britain.

@ComboMuster Год назад

Hmmm at some point I was thinking the same however in those days he would've been double-crossed and hanged with his crew AND they would've made public his treachery. Pirates were given no quarter. Henry Every knew and he was too smart for that. He left the crew because he knew at some point they couldn't keep their drunken mouths shut.

@sixjhontongalamar979 Год назад

@@ComboMuster also thinking at the same line of thought. It is possible that he sold his crew out as my initial thought or bribed with his treasury (which wouldn't be enough as they could just take it anyway) so it's possible for his expertise. Although it is also possible that he hid the treasures first but I doubt the government is lenient enough for Every to do that safely. So it is indeed the most likely that he escaped by himself if he's smart. If the government values his skills (used him for dirty work etc), or any valuables he hid and safely made the deal, then he is with new identity. Although it is indeed possible that the government dealt with him differently (or died along the way) even though public execution would be better for public image.

@ComboMuster Год назад

@@sixjhontongalamar979 Well it is said he held up his end in dividing the treasure fairly as agreed. My take is that he assessed what was going to happen if they all stay huddled up and get drunk as it actually happened in the end. Robbing East India co. and its allies meant no deal no pardon whatsoever. All his actions proved that he is extremely intelligent and daring so I guess he enjoyed his part of treasure til old age.

@alessiodecarolis Год назад

Right, probabilly he choose to divide the treasure btw his crew, then assumed another identity, he knew too well that if he had been caught the english would've hanged him, or worst, give to the Mughals as a "gift".

@sinnison23 Год назад

@@ComboMuster This is, in my mind, why they had different stories of where he said he was going. He likely knew too well that someone's lips would loosen as the screws tightened. I don't expect he ever told anyone where he truly intended to go, or what he intended to do.
